Hi, long time no see.  Hope everyone's fine.

I was trying to put a blank line between a couple of links
with
two <br>'s, but they got collapsed into one carriage
return.

Specifically,
     <a href="http://so
meurl.com/link1.html">Link 1</a>
     <br><br>
     <a href="http://so
meurl.com/link2.html">Link 2</a>
Looks like:
     [1]Link 1
     [2]Link 2

So is <p> what you're supposed to use, or do you use a
literal
carriage return between <pre></pre> to get:
     [1]Link 1

     [2]Link 2

TIA

__Henry

iirc this is a specific setting in lynx.cfg

.h2 COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS
# If COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS is set FALSE, Lynx will not collapse
serial BR tags.
# If set TRUE, two or more concurrent BRs will be collapsed
into a single
# line break.  Note that the valid way to insert extra blank
lines in HTML
# is via a PRE block with only newlines in the block.

#COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS:TRUE
